Toine Moerbeek

(The Netherlands)

Toine Moerbeek is the creator of 'Lucretia', a comic on rhyme. Based on the classical tale of Lucretia, it deals with historic themes. It is drawn in a film noir style, and can be seen as an experimental comic, not making use of panel borders and only using text balloons where it adds to the rhyme. Toine Moerbeek studied at the Rietvelt Academy in Amsterdam and is a member of artists collective Nieuwe Vide. He has worked for radio program 'De Avonden', where he visited artists in their workplace. 'Lucretia' has been published by Wagner & Van Santen.
